Landen's Lane trading house.
#1
[Image: 45NUAYe.png]

On a major road of Stormwind's trade district would lie a hub of buying and selling. Were one to enter and filter out the cacophony of speculation regarding all things from goods to coinage, any novice (merchant or otherwise) could easily spot the large trading board spanning the entirety of the shortest wall in the spacious structure. Backed by oak and fronted by worn, punctured cork, it would take even less than a novice to spot the sheer amount of advertising covering it, ranging from humble, worn parchment to marvelous engravings.

Open to the public, anybody, merchant or commoner, well known or unknown, could reasonably advertise or request goods using it. And, were they to pay the two silver posting fee, they wouldn't even get kicked out by the two spooky-looking bruisers guarding it (recognisable as the former "Brothers Ignorance", shady muscle-for-hire from the Old Town). And, as a place of meeting for many men of business as well as artisans, there'd be no shortage of extra services like coin-counting and appraisal for all kinds of goods (even for weapons and armor. Looking at you, OrcSlayer McGoodly.)

The rules would be lax - all messages must be legible and refer to tangible, legal goods. No mercenaries, no 'personals'. Otherwise, anything is allowed, no matter how odd, and more dubious methods of trade like short selling are deemed acceptable, as long as the trading house isn't liable for losses. You should probably also put down a method for those interested to contact you, but it's your message. Oh, and two silver coins up front.

(As a law-observing establishment, Landen's Lane holds the right to 6% of profit made from any trade concluded using its services, as well as surcharges from any additional tariffs that may fall under items being sold)

Any and all messages posted here, as long as they abide the rules detailed, will be put up on the board for all to see! (See: this post)

As of now, only one message stands out among the deluge.

Inquiries to Boralus Trading Association, Stormwind office.

It would appear to be missing from the board, a few days premature to its expiry.




Move him into the sun—
Gently its touch awoke him once,
At home, whispering of fields half-sown.
Always it woke him, even in France,
Until this morning and this snow.
If anything might rouse him now
The kind old sun will know.

Think how it wakes the seeds,—
Woke, once, the clays of a cold star.
Are limbs, so dear-achieved, are sides,
Full-nerved—still warm—too hard to stir?
Was it for this the clay grew tall?
—O what made fatuous sunbeams toil
To break earth’s sleep at all?
